Can anyone point me to an article that explains how to get an instance
of DB2 running on AIX 5.x authenticating against an Active Directory
server.
There is no issue securing AIX itself in this manner, but is this even
possible in the AIX world from a db perspective?
Thanks
1. Download security modules from here:
https://www14.software.ibm.com/webap...swg-dm-db2ldap
2. Read the readme.ldap file
3. Use such IBMLDAPSecurity.ini file assuming that you have:
Domain name: db2.swg.ru.ibm.com
PDC: db2pdc.db2.swg.ru.ibm.com
Some domain user for connection to PDC:
username: db2pdc\db2user
password: password
--- IBMLDAPSecurity.ini start (don't include this line into the file)
---
LDAP_HOST = db2pdc.db2.swg.ru.ibm.com
USER_OBJECTCLASS = user
USER_BASEDN = CN=Users,DC=db2,DC=swg,DC=ru,DC=ibm,DC=com
USERID_ATTRIBUTE = sAMAccountName
AUTHID_ATTRIBUTE = sAMAccountName
GROUP_OBJECTCLASS = group
GROUP_BASEDN = CN=Users,DC=db2,DC=swg,DC=ru,DC=ibm,DC=com
GROUPNAME_ATTRIBUTE = cn
GROUP_LOOKUP_METHOD = USER_ATTRIBUTE
GROUP_LOOKUP_ATTRIBUTE = memberOf

SEARCH_DN = CN=db2user,CN=Users,DC=db2,DC=swg,DC=ru,DC=ibm,DC= com
